My individuals in my social capital have to meet the criteria I have set amongst my employees and individuals I seek to become a future employee in my business. The social capital helps business owners (like myself) network with each other in an easy way, helping each person and their business grow. I am looking to find a store manager for our biggest location in Huntington, California.
In growing my social capital, I will work through these networking channels, searching to find a professional who can do the job and have the dynamics necessary to helping our business.
The five social capitals are listed below:
Mary Wright who has been working with a clothing line of her own, specializing in incorporating old materials into clothing. By this, she brings the environmental aspect into a clothing line, which is how she works her business. She manages her own company very well, but wants to stop. She knows how to manage customers as well.
Bob Frank was the general manager for the store Claire's and has lots of potential in a clothing store. Claire's is now shut down, but with his knowledge on customers and persuasive attitudes, he can definitely fit the job.
Alex Adams manages a surf shop in downtown LA and wants to find something in the Huntington Beach area, which is the surfing capital of the world. He works all long shifts and has a passion for surfing, which can help him relate to my customers. Also he is about 27 years old and has the young attitude my store seeks.
Olivia Cohen is a surfer who often comes in and is very intrigued by my company. She has way more knowledge and experience with/on surfing equipment than anyone I have yet to meet. Her intelligence on the subject can help her thrive.
Andy Paul manages a store located in LA that provides not only surfing equipment, but lessons on how to surf. His company thrives due to the lessons they incorporate and deals they hand out. His business skills are out of this world.

Hey Alexa,
ReplyDeleteInteresting post. I don't really get what this post is but are you from Hunington? Is Hunington different from Hunington Beach? Im from Hunington Beach.

Hi Alexa,
ReplyDeleteI'm not quite sure you understood the concept of this exercise. I did not take back much from your actual post and it seemed overall vague. I truly do not like giving such harsh criticism as we are all learning along the way but my social capital looks very different from yours. As does the previous one that I just read in our peer reviews.
Also, you may want to consider a different font for your blog all around. I found it difficult to read and had to highlight the text to actually see what you did write.
Again, sorry this could not be a more positive post.

Hi, Alexa!
ReplyDeleteSo unfortunately, I think you might not have understood the assignment. Its ok, I too found it strange. I found this assignment was very difficult which is why I, unfortunately, did not do it. But I do have several other posts!
Please feel free to check out my blog at the following link:

Hey there Alexa!
ReplyDeleteThis was for sure one of the most complicated assignments we had to do this entire semester, due to the fact that it required us to really get out there and talk to people that could potentially help us grow our list of connections in the business world. I didn't know a lot of people here in the US, so I had to call people from back home in Brazil to do this assignement. IF you want to read a little about how I did it, here is my blog post: http://gcwindow.blogspot.com/2016/03/growing-my-social-capital.html
Take it easy(:
Hi Alexa,
ReplyDeleteI'm not positive that you did this post quite correctly, as obviously others have pointed out. I would just read over a few other blog posts to see what exactly we were supposed to do if we end up getting this assignment again. That being said, please fix the font and color of the text its impossible to read.
I'm not sure I follow what you were doing here. Not to be a stickler, but I don't think this was what the assignment had in mind. Were you able to actually contact anyone in your industry to grow your social capital?
